Chapter 41: The 41st day after being dressed as Jia Mu

. In the old lady's courtyard, she pulled Daiyu to talk.

While complaining to netizens about her old waist, "I'm so tired from standing from morning to night."

Netizens were frantically expressing their love for Lin Daiyu -

"Wow, it's been a long time since I last saw Sister Lin."

"Sister Lin has her own family now, and she comes to Rongguo Mansion less and less often." "

But it's different with Daddy around. Look, Sister Lin was invited to watch the ceremony this time, which is different from the one in the Red Mansion."

...

The old lady was angry, but she felt comforted when she saw Lin Daiyu, who was getting better and better under her care.

"Grandma, didn't Baoyu come today?" Lin Daiyu asked. She knew that Baoyu had been beaten again not long ago. Could it be that his injury had not healed yet?

"They all greeted him at the West Street entrance. Maybe you can only see him at the dinner." The old lady said.

Lin Daiyu nodded and said with a smile, "This second brother is still a child, but father said that he is a rare true character." This is about Baoyu's inappropriate words to the emperor.

Daiyu said this not for Baoyu, but because she was afraid that the old ancestor would be sad about Sister Yuanchun's matter, "Old ancestor, please relax, Baoyu will grow up."

The old lady shook her head, "He is a stubborn donkey that will not go when led, and will retreat when beaten. Let's not talk about this. Have you been taking medicine recently?"

Seeing that the old ancestor was really not sad, Daiyu also put aside this matter, "Old ancestor, don't worry about me. I haven't taken medicine for more than half a year, and I'm fine."

"That's good."

As she was talking, Sanchun and Baochai came in. It was rare for the sisters to get together, so the old lady asked them to go to the side room to chat.

The girls talked about Baoyu.

"I think Brother Bao deserves this beating." Xichun pouted and didn't care.

Tanchun nodded at her, "Don't talk nonsense."

"How can I talk nonsense? He has made our sister Bao cry several times, not to mention other things." Xichun said and blinked.

Baochai's cheeks immediately blushed, "I will twist your mouth."

Xichun immediately ran away with a smile.

Several people were playing around, but suddenly a message came from the main hall, "The queen is here."

Just a moment later, Jia Yuanchun and Mrs. Wang came to see the old lady. Yuanchun took two steps forward to pay respect to the old ancestor. The old lady did not dare to neglect it and hurriedly helped her up, "You are the queen, don't dare to do this in the future."

Jia Yuanchun smiled and said, "Old ancestor, even if I am the queen, you are still my grandmother." Then, she dismissed the maid who followed her, "Let me talk to my grandmother's mother."

The maid respectfully left.

When she was the only one left in the room, Jia Yuanchun suddenly burst into tears, which scared everyone.

"My queen," Mrs. Wang was the first to be moved, hugging Yuanchun, "I'm sorry for wronging you."

The old lady also said, "But because of Baoyu's incident..."

Unexpectedly, Jia Yuanchun cried and laughed again. She wiped her tears and shook her head, "It's just that I haven't seen so many people in the family for a long time, and I feel a little emotional for a while."

She held the old lady's hand, "These years, if the queen mother hadn't taken care of me for the sake of the old ancestor, I wouldn't have been able to be crowned as a

concubine so smoothly." Then she continued, "Even if Baoyu angered your majesty that day, it was the queen mother's blessing. Even if there are some gossips, it doesn't matter." It can be seen that Jia Yuanchun really admires the old lady, which makes the old lady who seems to have done nothing a little embarrassed. "Speaking of which, I seem to have just said something like "I still have some face in front of the queen mother" back then. "

It should be that the queen mother was very satisfied with the things presented by the host. "

"Then you can't take care of Jia Yuanchun like this"

"I don't know about that. '

No matter what, the old lady accepted the thanks first, and then, perhaps because she was too shy, she praised Jia Yuanchun, "The key is the queen's own ability. There is no girl in our family who is smarter than the queen."

Look, it's rare to praise someone, and it really has a good effect.

Jia Yuanchun smiled and looked unusually bright, no longer solemn and old when she was first made a concubine.

Mrs. Wang was so happy that she seemed to have turned into Maitreya Buddha.

After saying something, Wang Xifeng came to report, "The banquet is ready, please move, the queen." The old lady asked someone to call a few maids and went to the front together.

The banquet was exquisite and luxurious.

Many days ago, Mrs. Wang ordered the main kitchen to invite the cook from the old lady's small kitchen, just to make Jia Yuanchun satisfied.

Jia Yuanchun just moved her chopsticks slightly, but in a moment, she got the taste and almost couldn't stop.

In particular, a dish of braised three treasures duck and a dish of red flower shark's fin were the most popular with her.

Although there were occasional rumors in the past that her family ate exquisite food, Jia Yuanchun just listened to them.

After all, the palace had delicacies from land and sea, which could not be compared with those outside.

She thought that others were just flattering her, but now she finally understood why those people praised it so much.

Not only was it delicious, but the presentation was also particularly exquisite, and it was not much worse than the imperial meal.

For a moment, Jia Yuanchun was proud and comforted.

Among the others, Jia She was the most delicious, but his mother was not willing to let him satisfy his craving in the past, but now he was eating with great enthusiasm.

Jia Zheng sat aside with disdain, turned his head, and saw Jia Zhen holding a bowl of matsutake skirt hem and eating with relish. He saw that Jia Zhen's complexion was indeed not good these days, so he didn't know what to say.

He just sighed and pushed his bowl of matsutake skirt hem, which had not been touched, over.

In a moment, the banquet was over.

The old lady knew that she would write poems and watch plays in the future, so she was not interested in joining in. Just then, the doorman outside came to announce that "Second Master Lian is back." She asked Jia Lian to kowtow to Jia Yuanchun first, and then took him to the back to question him.

"Grandmother, I missed you so much." Jia

Lian wolfed down his food while crying without any image, not behaving like a gentleman in the past. "How long has Jia Lian been gone?"

"He left before the New Year, so it must have been half a year."

"Oh my god, this is Jia Lian

." "Look at the poor child, how long has he not had a meal?"

"It seems that life in the military camp is not easy."

The old lady said disdainfully, "Don't talk first, talk after you finish eating."

"Mmm!" Jia Lian nodded quickly.

After a while, Wang Xifeng and Jia She also broke away and rushed to the back to see Jia Lian.

Jia Lian had just finished eating and was drinking soup.

Wang Xifeng rushed to Jia Lian first, "Master, you are back."

But Jia Lian turned his gaze to Jia She. When he saw his father, his eyes immediately turned red, "Father, you have made me suffer." God knows how he survived the days of grinding teeth, spanking, smelly feet and sweat in the military camp.

Jia She was embarrassed. He looked at Lady Jia first. Seeing that the old lady had no intention of moving her crutches, he straightened his chest and scolded, "You can't stand any hardship. I have been communicating with Duke Anguo all the time. You eat and dress the same as the prince. What else do you have to complain about?"

"Wait," Jia She shouted, thinking of something, "You didn't come back for the New Year before the New Year. Why are you back now? Are you a deserter?"

Jia Lian was angry, "It was Duke Anguo who heard that the queen was coming home, so he allowed me to go home."

Moreover, what does "eat and dress the same as the prince" mean? The key point is that the prince has been hanging out with those soldiers, and this is what makes him most miserable.

"Well, is that so? That's good, that's good." Jia She touched his nose uncomfortably.

The old lady rolled her eyes in her heart, not wanting to watch Jia She make a fool of himself, and asked Jia Lian, "You left in a hurry at the beginning, but you didn't ask where the Duke of Anguo was suppressing the bandits along the way."

Jia Lian hurriedly straightened his expression when he heard the old ancestor asking the question. He was still eager for the old ancestor to get him back.

Being in the army is really not a job for humans.

Jia Lian said, "We went all the way south, suppressing bandits wherever we went, and only stopped at the sea border. Now there are no bandits to suppress, and we only do exercises every day. This is also the reason why the Duke of Anguo can let his grandson return to Beijing." "

Do you still remember that the Duke of Anguo asked the old lady to borrow the map of the sea border?"

"But the ones the Duke of Anguo took out were not navy. '

'It's still a few years away. Besides, is there no navy on the sea?'

Jia Lian seemed to have thought of something and showed a hint of joy. "Although

my grandson is a civilian, he was lucky enough to capture a small leader of the bandits during a bandit suppression campaign in Heishui'ao and won a third-class merit." "Okay, you are indeed my good son." Jia She patted Jia Lian on the shoulder. "You won a third-class merit this time. Next time, you will strive to get a second-class merit."

Jia Lian's face suddenly darkened.

The old lady smiled unkindly, "Brother Lian, will you go back this time?"

Wang Xifeng looked nervous, and Jia Lian waved his hands hurriedly, "Grandfather, please forgive me. My grandson is not that kind of material. I am happy to run errands for you. Please be kind and help my grandson to plead for mercy."

Jia Lian bowed repeatedly, and motioned to Jia She, who was blowing his beard and glaring, and wanted to get angry, to beg for mercy.

"You bastard, I am doing this for your own good." Jia She was dissatisfied.

"But my son can't bear it anymore!" Jia Lian's face was broken.

The old lady was also worried about Jia Lian, the young master, but after hearing what Jia Lian said, Duke Anguo did not release him at all, but only approved him for leave. She hesitated and said, "Let your father write the letter first, and you can recuperate at home now."

Jia Lian's face suddenly broke into a smile, "Thank you, ancestors, thank you, ancestors."

Jia She did not dare to refute, and had no choice but to agree. He only cried in his heart and thought that he must go to the ancestral hall to tell the ancestors later. With an old mother who is holding back, Lian'er, I'm afraid I can't have a big fat boy.

The excitement in front dissipated at the time of Chou, and Yuanchun returned to the palace. The old lady and others waited to see her off, and cried again.

After Yuanchun returned to the palace, Lin Daiyu also said goodbye to everyone and got on the carriage with the help of Lin Youcai.

The next day, before Jia She sent out a reply, there was no reply.

Jiangnan was suddenly shaken, and the Zhen family hurried into Beijing with people.
